Well i am happy to sway we didnt get changed:) It looks like hermana bajaña will be killing me off. You know i am so excited for this change. i fell so pumped for this change and excited to find people.
This last week was a holiday weekend called "dia de difuntos" or day of the dead. No one works on friday and everyone does their own thing all weekened. The truth is that the mision work really slows down a ton in holidays here because no one wants to recieve us. So we spend most of our day knocking doors if we dont have appointments or we visit members. A tradition that they do every year during these days is that they make something called colada morada. Man i think i drank like 2 gallons of that. Its a hot fruit drink that they do with a purple colored flour. Its thick and they eat it with bread called guagua de pan. I think i have gained like 10 pounds i am no even kidding. Its alright its just that everyone and their dog was making it and so everyone offered some. I could probably describe the taste like a fruit syrup that you would put on ice cream.
We also have been getting a ton of rain here. In the last cople afternoons we have had some pretty nasty lighting storms. We were contacting when a storm came over us. We were far from any members houses so we contacted until a little old lady invited us in with open arms. She was so nice but when we started talking about the gospel she shut us up and said i am catholic but when i saw you two out there i had to let you in. Needless to say we were happy to be away from the lighting. After awhile we left because it looked like the storm was calming down but when we went outside a huge ray struck so close to us. We just ran to the bus stop. It was kinda like we were in war. Then today we were eating lunch with a member family when a big lighting ray stripped through the street. It was crazy we could see it because the door was open. Oh and today we found a baby scourpian in our bathroom. Needless to say it has been an adventure this week haha.
Hermana leonela was able to get married finally and was baptised. This lady is so sweet and humble.
Well my dear wonderful family. I love you all so much. I am so happy to hear that our family is growing and that your guys are enjoying life. Have a great week. Chao!!!
Love,
Hna Wilhelm
